The hooker survied and then she took the bible and read it to her son and then he turned out to be a preacher!. Heres the lyrics!. If you read them it might help you understand the song more!. I know it did for me!. ;-)
A farmer and a teacher, a hooker and a preacher,
Ridin' on a midnight bus bound for Mexico!.
One's headed for vacation, one for higher education,
And two of them were searchin' for lost souls!.
That driver never ever saw the stop sign!.
An' eighteen wheelers can't stop on a dime!.
There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway,
Why there's not four of them, Heaven only knows!.
I guess it's not what you take when you leave this world behind you,
It's what you leave behind you when you go!.
That farmer left a harvest, a home and eighty acres,
The faith an' love for growin' things in his young son's heart!.
An' that teacher left her wisdom in the minds of lots of children:
Did her best to give 'em all a better start!.
An' that preacher whispered: "Can't you see the Promised Land!?"
As he laid his blood-stained bible in that hooker's hand!.
There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway,
Why there's not four of them, Heaven only knows!.
I guess it's not what you take when you leave this world behind you,
It's what you leave behind you when you go!.
That's the story that our preacher told last Sunday!.
As he held that blood-stained bible up,
For all of us to see!.
He said: "Bless the farmer, and the teacher, an' the preacher;
"Who gave this Bible to my mamma,
"Who read it to me!."

the hooker survived the crash!. However I do have the question to who was driving the bus!? If it was not one of the four mentioned why is the song not 4 crosses instead of 5!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
because in the song 3 wooden crosses by randy travis fyi, the hooker was the only one to live through the crash!.!.!.!.!.!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
ditto, and ps i love that song but its freaking confusing!Www@Enter-QA@Com
The hooker survived because she was given a second chance at life to make it better!. The other three lived their lives to the fullest!. Www@Enter-QA@Com
